I have made these about 10 times now and love them. I do weekly meal planning on a budget so these go in when I need a cheap meal to stretch my money. My 18 month old gobbles them up!

My family enjoyed this recipe. I was a little concerned that they may be bland so I did add miniced onions, lemon juice and garlic powder to the cakes. To the Mustard Mayo I added pickel relish. A keeper for sure.

I have made this recipe a couple of times already, and we just love it! So quick and full of flavor. Plus you can't beat the cost per serving!

I've made this twice now. My husband and I love them as do my kids (ages 1 and 2 1/2). Quick, easy and cheap. I do cook them a little longer than the recipe calls for because I like them nicely brown and crusted.

Forgot to defrost something? No problem this is such an easy quick enjoyable recipe. No more last minute tuna casseroles for me.

This is a bland recipe. I would put onions and lemon juice in them to enhance the flavors.
